much of the country in the east coast scorcher continuing. it's hot. the nation's capital is one of the cities feeling the heat. cooler temperatures aren't expected in the midwest and east coast until the weekend when they will get a little relief. it's also very high humidity. and a lot of dirty air, as well. so the acs will be going nonstop on the east coast. >> you have to be careful in heat like that. >> absolutely. we have a double-barreled heat wave building back into the bay area. we are going to see hot temperatures here but kind of a big extreme in temperatures. we are going to see cool numbers at the coastline and it's going to get hot in some of the valleys. highs this afternoon will soar under mostly sunny skies. but boy, we have a lot of fog early on today. not quite as much as yesterday. but still you should see it extending over the bay. temperatures up to 55 in san francisco. 57 in san jose. 54 in santa rosa. by the afternoon, we are looking at 80s and even some low 90s so be careful in that

eastbound 80 right there by cummings skyway may be blocking the on-ramp to 80 so we're continuing to watch it. not seeing any major slowing yet on or off of the carquinez bridge. but again, just a heads up there. our first report. also, westbound highway 4, pretty sluggish this morning. we have that one earlier accident. it wasn't in lanes for very long. but it kind of backed up the commute through antioch 17 miles per hour and now as you get closer towards pittsburg we're seeing a few brake lights as well a little bit of changing color on our sensors. so westbound 580 our usual slow- and-go from the altamont pass to the dublin interchange. the drive time is 31 minutes now. once you get past vasco we see some improvement but sensors are picking up yellow meaning speeds under 40 miles per hour towards the dublin interchange. let's go outside show you a couple of live traffic cameras. here's the nimitz 880 in oakland. the taillights are the northbound commute so obviously no major brake lights yet. usually around 8:00 we see the usual bottleneck past the

coliseum. southbound fine as well if you have to catch a flight over at oakland airport got an early- morning flight out of town and the san mateo bridge here's some of that fog lawrence is talking about with the westbound 92 commute right now it's 14 minutes out of hayward heading towards foster city. looks good coming off the high- rise, as well. that's your latest traffic. back to you. there is a big drop in the number of people signing up to get unemployment benefits. here now to chat about it, kcbs radio's financial reporter jason brooks on this thursday morning. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, training. good morning, michelle. some good news to start out our thursday regarding the job market. labor department reporting that first time weekly unemployment claims fell by 24,000 to 334,000. that's the lowest level in two months. the four-week average also slid lower by around 5,000 to 351,000. jobless claims have been bouncing around over the past several weeks. so certainly a move in that direction is good news. we were looking for a vote today on whether or not pc maker dell would be taken private in a $24.4 billion deal

but that has been postponed until a week from yesterday. so july 24th, ceo michael dell wants to take the struggling firm private but he needs to get more support before holding that vote. a flood of tech earnings out this morning. several influential silicon valley firms and there is pressure on the tech sector because intel and ebay had some disappointing news for investors. stock in both companies falling right now. overall the market heading in a positive direction. let's check the big board. right now the dow is up by 76 points. nasdaq is gaining 3. s&p higher by 6. intel however lower by 2.5% ebay down by 6.5%. frank and michelle, back to you. >> thank you, jason brooks. on capitol hill, there could be a senate vote as soon as today on a bill to keep student loan interest rates low for a while. the bipartisan compromise was reached yesterday as part of the deal all undergraduates this fall would borrow at 3.85%

interest rates, but those rates would climb as the economy improves. so the rates could jump as high as 8.25% by 2015. >> we'll wait to see what is produced before we judge it. but obviously, the president is very concerned about this issue. >> student loan interest rates doubled at the beginning of the month as congress failed to take action before going on the 4th of july break. university of california regents will be introduced to their expected new president today. but there are likely to be some protests over the hiring of janet napolitano. kpix 5 reporter anne makovec is in san francisco where uc regents are scheduled to hold the confirmation vote this afternoon. >> reporter: that vote is supposed to start at 1:00 this afternoon but the protests are supposed to start at noon. so we'll see if that interferes at all depending on how passionate people get here at uc-san francisco. janet napolitano already announced she would step down as u.s. homeland security secretary if she is confirmed

by the 26-member board of regents today. former arizona governor studied at santa clara university and now may become the first woman to ever head the uc system. her confirmation looks very likely. she has been a figurehead in national immigration policy. that's where today's protests come in. people upset about her support of the program called secure communities. that has local law enforcement working with the federal government to weed out undocumented immigrants accused of crimes. a lot of people think her experience dealing with those complicated issues would help her as head of the uc system. it is not an easy job. you may remember mark yudof stepped down earlier this year. he was not a popular man with most students overseeing the implementation of cuts and tuition hikes over the past few years. if she is confirmed, we don't to her salary would be, but yudof was $600,000 which is a step up from u.s. homeland security secretary making less

that $200,000. live in san francisco, anne makovec, kpix 5. >> a big raise. thanks. thousands of university of california graduate students are getting a one-year reprieve from fee increases. it would be a political risk, the original plan called for fee increases for 29 of its programs and now that number has been whittled down to 8. some stores refuse to sell rolling stone magazine for giving dzhokhar tsarnaev celebrity treatment. the issue is the cover showing boston marathon bombing suspect dzhokhar tsarnaev. >> it does surprise me that rolling stone would do something like that. >> guessing it's for shock value and for shock value alone that's not a reason to put something up that costs human life to sell magazines. >> the magazine says it wanted to help readers understand how a tragedy like the bombing happened. the house has voted to delay two key components of the

affordable care act. the white house has already delayed one of those provisions that requires businesses with more than 50 full-time employees to provide health insurance. the other mandate requires almost every american to have healthcare insurance beginning january 1. president obama plans to assess the issue later today. a new boy scouts policy has banned extremely obese campers from their jamboree nationally. this year boys with a bmi of 40 or more won't be allowed to attend, the severely obese banned. >> excludes them from physical activity even though i understand there's, you know, health risks associated with the intensity of workout, i think there should be, you know, a modification. >> we posted a link to our website where you can calculate your body mass index at kpix.com, click on "links and numbers." a san jose apartment complex is a more peaceful place now that a group of
